Synopsis
For centuries, the Holy Grail has been wielded by the chosen Sage — a being of immense power tasked with maintaining the fragile balance between the human world and the hidden domains of the Shades.
But then, Grey, a rogue born from pure malice shattered his prison and unleashed hell upon both worlds. Man-eaters now roam the earth, destroying everything at his bidding. None have been able to challenge him. And the age of the Sage appears to be ending in blood.
Sixteen-year-old Z never wanted any of this.
Thrust into possession of the Holy Grail, Z is dragged into the floating Vatican — one of the domains of the Shades.
Hunted by monsters, distrusted by allies, and burdened with a power that is deemed as a curse, he must survive deadly trials, ruthless rivals, and his own fragile humanity if he hopes to stand against Grey.
But as Z grows stronger, he begins to uncover a terrifying truth: The greatest war he will ever fight is not against Grey, not against the man-eaters, and not against the rival domains. It is against the destiny that has already been written for him.
In a world where becoming the hero may require becoming the monster, Z must decide how much he is willing to lose — and how far he is willing to fall — to save everyone.
Rising of the Sage is a dark fantasy tale of power, rebellion, sacrifice, and the brutal cost of truth.
